Adjunct Lecturer in Law – Music Law in Practice

The USC Gould School of Law is seeking an adjunct lecturer to teach Music Law in Practice. This one-unit course covers the legal, analytical, and client management skills required to service music industry clients of all kinds in all areas of the music industry, including recording, publishing, live performance, digital, agents and managers, television, film, and media uses of music, digital radio, Youtube, and social media.

Candidates for this position must have a JD and at least five years of experience, including experience relevant to the subject matter.

This is a residential course, which requires teaching on campus.

USC reserves the “Adjunct” appointment for faculty teaching less than full-time at USC, who are employed full-time in a primary profession or career elsewhere. Adjunct faculty typically teach only one course per year but, in exceptional cases, may teach one course per semester, if approved by the dean.

Equity, diversity, inclusion, opportunity, and access are of central importance to the Gould School of Law. Gould holds a unique position in society, and within the university, as every aspect of these principles is influenced by and can be protected through legal rules and institutions. At Gould, we are proudly committed to maintaining a community in which each person respects the rights of others to live, work, and learn in peace and dignity, to be proud of who and what they are, and to have equal opportunity to realize their full potential as individuals and members of society.
